Baltimore Orioles general manager Mike Elias got 100% real on the upcoming trade deadline. The franchise has had a trying 2025 season, and currently sits at 35-46 in the American League East. Baltimore is 11.5 games out of first place in the division and seven games out of the last wild card spot. 2025 certainly hasn’t been ideal for the Orioles, and they must consider whether they should be buyers or sellers at the trade deadline, which is just over a month away.
